Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week was another hot week for the Natural State, with a little bit of rain during the week. This morning, Hot Springs did receive a nice storm bringing over an inch of rain to the area (the official rain total will be in next week’s Weekly Wrap Up). Here’s a look at the other rain totals from my CoCoRaHS rain gauge in Hot Springs over the past week.

Here’s a look at current temperatures across Arkansas (both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations), as well as a look at current conditions from a few Earth Networks weather stations across the state this evening (maps and images courtesy of Baron Threat Net and Earth Networks Sferic Maps).

Here’s a look at the seven-day extended forecast for Hot Springs. High’s in the 80’s for part of this week! We could finally get a little relief from the summer heat!

Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week saw extremely hot temperatures across Arkansas (with places seeing well over 100F and 100F heat index), as well as a major storm traveled through portions of the state yesterday evening (Hot Springs was spared the brunt of it). In terms of actual rain, Hot Springs didn’t get much rain out of the severe weather events over the past week. Here’s a look at the rain totals on my CoCoRaHS rain gauge in Hot Springs.

Welcome to another Weekly Wrap Up! This week brought more hot temperatures and a few showers to the Natural State. It’s also the week I wrapped up my Summer intensive German course, and I look forward to jumping back into a typical routine next week (although the Summer German course was fun!). I’m hoping to also check back in with Earth Networks on getting my weather station back online so I can continue to send current observations again. Here’s a look at the rain totals we saw this past week from my CoCoRaHS rain gauge in Hot Springs.

Here’s a look at the current radar from across the region, as well as a look at temperatures across the state (from both NWS and Earth Networks weather stations), as well as a look at current conditions from Earth Networks weather stations across Arkansas this evening (maps and images courtesy of Baron Threat Net and Earth Networks Sferic Maps). Parts of the state are under a Heat Advisory tonight as well.

Videos from Earth Networks Lightning Safety Awareness Week 2018 @EarthNetworks #ARWX

No Comments

A couple of weeks ago, Earth Networks produced a series of videos on Facebook Live for Lightning Safety Awareness Week 2018. These were a great series of videos from the team at Earth Networks (a company I do support and training consulting for) on the importance of remaining safe during lightning events. With lightning strikes recently killing an individual in Florida and Arkansas, as well as sparking a house fire in Arkansas, the importance of lightning safety awareness cannot be stressed enough. For those who have not had a chance to view the Earth Networks Lightning Safety Awareness Week 2018 Facebook Live videos, I’ve included a link to them here.

More information on the Earth Networks Total Lightning Network, the first of its kind to detect both in-cloud and cloud-to-ground lightning on a global scale, is available here. More information on the sensors that comprise the Earth Networks Total Lightning Network is available here. The Earth Networks Total Lightning Network also powers Earth Networks Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts and PulseRad Doppler radar alternative, and is available in Earth Networks services such as Sferic Maps, Sferic Mobile, Sferic Protect, and Outdoor Alerting System. Interested in putting the power of the Earth Networks Total Lightning Network to protect your organization? Contact the teams at Earth Networks today, and don’t forget to follow the Earth Networks Blog!
